This is actually a Netflix Studios original production - so Netflix owns the whole thing. This makes it much less likely that they'd give another streaming service a whack at continuing the project.
However, on the flip side, if you're a streaming service and you say to your content creators (in this case, Brit Marling and Zal Batmaljilisgjdsgswefx) "hey, we know you love what you've created and that you have a vision for it, but #### you, because we're going to keep the IP under lock and key despite the fact that we have no intention of ever doing anything with it", that might dissuade people from choosing Netflix to host their project in the future, at least in the circumstance where they could sell a show to Amazon or Disney or HBO or whoever else might exist.
